I'm having problems with the Socket.IO client library that I can't get my head around. When trying to import the library into my main Svelte Component like this

import io from 'socket.io-client'

everything compiles properly, but once I open it in the browser I get an

Uncaught Reference error: exports not defined

The above way is how the Socket.IO guides say, but I also tried different variations like

import {io} from 'socket.io-client'

import * as io from 'socket.io-client'

and can't get any one of them to work. I supsect it might have to do with how Rollup treats imports and what Module Formats it expects, but I don't have much knowledge in that regard.

Can anyone help?
